Klass Expands Its Talent Team with the Addition of Talent Acquisition Manager Dave Vu

Toronto, Canada, January 16, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Klass Capital is excited to welcome Dave Vu, Talent Acquisition Manager, to the Klass Talent team. Dave will be joining Head of Talent, Jared Tessis, and Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist, Jennifer Girodat.

As a Talent Acquisition Manager, Dave will work closely with Klass portfolio companies providing them with recruitment and talent acquisition services. Dave brings a breadth of experience to the Klass team. He has been entrenched in technology recruitment in Canada for the past 6 years.

Dave launched his technology career in a business development role at Oracle where he was responsible for driving new business and maintaining relationships with large global clients. After his time at Oracle, Dave joined a technology recruitment agency where he spent a few years helping it grow to become one of the leading technology firms in Toronto. Most recently, Dave led the talent team at a fast-growing Toronto-based technology start-up. He revamped and modernized the company’s talent program, and made several key strategic hires.

“Dave’s experience in the technology industry and understanding of all the facets of fast-growing software companies will help Klass’ portfolio companies succeed as they continue to scale and focus on recruiting high quality talent. The talent landscape is rapidly changing and millennials are now the largest generation in the workforce. Dave has the relevant skill-set and experience to help our portfolio companies adapt, and attract and retain top talent,” said Jared Tessis, who was recently promoted to Head of Talent at Klass.

“The expansion of our talent team is a testament to the growth of the Klass portfolio. Our companies are continuing to scale their teams and several of them have recently raised, or are in the process of raising large funding rounds. The addition of Dave will allow us to continue to support our portfolio companies with our value-add talent and recruitment services,” said Daniel Klass, Managing Partner of Klass Capital.
